Hey, vegan here. It’s okay if you want to hate veganism and/or vegans themselves. Quite frankly, I don’t care, but please refrain from omitting important details in the article to make plant-based diets as a whole look bad. It makes you look like a close-minded moron who will grasp at any straws to justify your position.
Any diet handled poorly will be nutritionally detrimental, no shit, and she just happened to handle her plant-based diet by consuming essentially nothing but raw fruit. For you to fail to acknowledge this actually makes me think you’re just, in bad faith, looking for any leverage you can get to shit on veganism when you don’t have to. I can assure you that, as a vegan, I find her dietary choices insane.
Let me leave you with this: think for a moment. Be a little more critical about how you approach a matter like this. I’m not saying this for my sake; I’m saying it for yours, so you don’t embarrass yourself online by coming off as a dense motherfucker with a straightforward, black-and-white, narrow , linear thought process.
Thanks.
Wow. Are you going to be ok? I’m not sure if you’re reading into my comment with some baggage.
You’re absolutely right about fruit based - I casually wrapped vegan and fruit based together without realizing that she was practicing an extreme diet and it wasn’t indicative of a vegan diet.
I suppose I’m not aware of how much grief you get from society or people to defend your choices.
I’ll try not to comment on vegan topics anymore and I’m not sure what I said specifically to deserve such venom but I’ll do my best to not come across as a moron I guess.
I didn’t obfuscate facts from the article. I wasn’t attempting to summarize the article. I was asking how her diet doesn’t account for issues stemming from her diet. But I see now what you mean that her being vegan and eating only fruit are two different things. I guess reading it casually I wasn’t sensitive to what must be your plight.
Hope you feel better.
I’m going to be just fine. Dude, I’m just interpreting this very face value. The article outright references eating “an all fruit diet”. The fact that you went out of your way to seemingly make this about veganism being the inherent concern just reeked of bad faith. CTFO.
